      It really does feel like that. I run normal roulettes = generally fine. I go into mentor (and this goes for 90 content too) = single pull/no mit/no sprint tanks, no dps healers, dps doing I dunno wtf. One time there was a dps guy farming Ratholos ex through the duty finder (EU)

      I would assume that mentor roulettes prioritize queues for those who have never completed that content before. This would explain why some of those runs can feel sketchy at times (they never played it before) and why my second chances for wondrous tails fill up so dang fast.

    Reminds of when I qued in as a healer for mentor roulette and quickly found out why the healer had left. I left as well. Lmaooo
    The tank had no tank stance on, would run towards the adds and then just auto attack and let everyone get hit.

      @Hitsugix ปีที่แล้ว +19

      @@cj1111 seeing how so many people "play" their jobs, especially tanks... i don't think they are all boosted. i think they all miss basic understanding. i barely see a tank in a dungeon use their reprisal/arm's length on trash groups and if they use a rampart - of course when there are only 2 mobs left and one of them is half dead - you can count yourself lucky.
      the other way round: healers who just stupidly stand around instead of doing dps when they don't have to heal. or they simply constantly overheal without any reason. what is that??
      it's not only in mental roulette. you can see those things in any dungeon, trial, alliance or normal raid. it's depressing.

      ​@@Hitsugix I think the game does a bad job of explaining your job roles, so if someone whos unfamiliar with mmos picks up a healer, its not clear to them that every minute they are not healing, theyre supposed to do dps. so they are constantly overhealing to feel engaged with the content.

      @@kixmix2450 i agree, but only to a certain extent. logic and common sense dictate that people get to ask themselves what they are supposed to do in their roles. especially when others tell them they are doing something wrong. instead of just ignoring the advice or even giving dumb answers they should learn how to play their job at least decently. nobody expects perfection here. and many people also never read what their new abilities actually do. just came out of a dungeon and guess what? the tank didn't use any mitigation whatsoever. the dps both stood in everything, ran out with their stack markers etc. it was the ghimlyt dark, a lvl 70 dungeon. how can you not know the most basic things at this level? at this point i think it really is a lack of brains. maybe single player games would be better for them.

      depends if you're queuing as a healer or tank. They may just have had to wait for a while to replace one of those two if they disconnected. If the time ellapsing is big and you're queuing as a DPS, this is starting to be scary.
